Rhaenyra X Alicent - Blog Posts
Watching Daemon flirt with his niece be like
The Bond
What once we had was pure and golden
The time had passed and we have rotten.
Who broke the peace? Who is to blame?
Who was the wolf? Who was the game?
Our bond untangled into worms
Presenting us in vile forms.
We bare our knives, we make our cuts,
We mend this bond by sharing scars.
the redhead with heart-eyes and their blondie that tries to run away is my favorite trope (i'm literally crying on the floor)
HotD episode 9 was bewildering. Being the first episode solely about the greens, I was apprehensive regarding how it'll be carried by the audience... in one word? Powerful.
What truly made the episode were certain quotes which blew my mind.
"We do not rule, but we may guide the men that do."
"And yet you toil in your service to men... you desire not to be free but to make a window in the wall of your prison."
The words which truly sparked the desire to break free in Alicent. Free from the clutches of her father, free to make her own decisions.
We see this particularly during the coronation when:
Alicent is the one on screen, between the swords when the words 'A new king' are spoken.
Alicent stands between Meleys and Aegon. A dragon facing another desiring equal standing. Two queens who never were facing each other.
"It is our fate, I think, to crave always what is given to another. "
Helena's words overlapping with Alicent's meeting with the lords to establish Aegon on the throne. And in the end Alicent and Aemond craving it for themselves.
And finally "There is no power but what people allow you to take."
Mysaria's words left me gaping. It truly embodied the entire scenario of power is temporary being highlighted in the episode.
I believe that we might also compare these words to Aemond's condition as he too is not able to take anything apart from what is handed to him.
(I have not read the books and all my interpretations are based solely on the show.)
Happy pride my fellow fruity friends🏳️🌈🧡💛🤍💗❤️
(Waiting for the day I’ll have my asexual representations in fantasy shows, wìmeanwhile ill headcanon Aemond as demisexual)
Also shoutout to Bi king Daemon, we’ve been robbed.
I'm just gonna post this here and wait for some writer to give the people this modern Au we all need.
Like big sis Rhae taking care of her young siblings bc their parents died or something, and then drop me rhaenyra's bestie Ali helping her with the kids.

way too proud of my rhaenicent shuffle to not share it here:
“Why do you like Alicent?” “How could you like Alicent” “she’s a traitor”
My favorite Shakespearean character is Lady Macbeth. This should be a surprise to no one. God forbid women do anything
Also Olivia Cooke is hot
Like I’m screaming and throwing up. Are you kidding me.
Obviously this is NOT done but I think I speak for all Rhaenicent fans when I say that we will take whatever we can get. So anyway here’s my progress on these babies
I never post on tumblr, but it's pride month and Rhaenicent is in my brain.
I may or may not finish this. We will see 💃🏻
I WILL wake up Christmas morning and find these two scissoring under the tree 🙏🏻🙏🏻 please god
KNOWING ME, KNOWING YOU!!!!
Just between us, I remember it all too well.
this is what my delusional ass thinks happened in the finale
Okay so a few things:
The series premiere of HBO 's House Of The Dragon has me already hooked. I have no idea about the Game of Thrones franchise as I haven't seen the show but seeing as this is technically a prequel, no one should have a problem when it comes to understanding.
Friendship: I love Rhaenyra's and Alicent's friendship, its so pure and soft.
Dragons: i really want to have a dragon like Syrax and Caraxes. Especially Syrax; she is such a gorgeous one.
Lady Alicent Hightower: such a sweetheart. She is so beautiful and so kind and considerate, I love her. It's annoying that her jacka** of a father trued to use her to seduce the king. Honestly im just waiting to see what happens to her father.
Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen: again a literal sweetheart, such a cotton ball. Based on the first episode, I think it's safe to say that Rhaenyra is going to be the first woman to be the Ruler of The Seven Kingdoms and the Heir to the Iron Throne. I hope that she doesn't turn out to be like Daenerys; she was a good queen but at the end she became just like her father but still, love the Mother of Dragons.
Prince Daemon Targaryen: this one, I have mixed feelings about. We have yet to see how this man really is, so I guess I will have to wait before I can give a proper verdict. Anyway I have to admit that Matt Smith looks so f**kin handsome in blonde. I'm interested to see the dynamics of his relationship with his niece. However, I'm sure we all agree that him killing people without any knowledge if they're guilty or not is a f**ked up thing to do.
Fashion: love the clothes, the jewellery, the hair. I love the embroidery on Rhaenyra's outfit at the end. Alicent's simple yet elegant gowns are to die for.
All in all, the premiere was so solid. I'm really looking forward to this series. Maybe this could be the one to push me into the world of GOT.
"Alicent is feeling very alone. She feels she doesn't have a real partner in her life, even her father. She feels her father has pushed her to the place she's in. And she can't hear her own voice. She can't feel her own heart beating. So when Rhaenyra enters, that's what she wants. She wants the love in her life, and it's a bit of a love story in a way, of these two women."

GEETA VASANT PATEL! give me canon Rhaenicent, and my life is yours.

Rhaenyra: So are we flirting right now?
Alicent: I AM LITERALLY STABBING YOU
Rhaenyra: That doesn’t answer my question
queen rhaenyra targaryen, first of her name, queen of the andals, the rhoynar, & the first men, queen of the seven kingdoms, protector of the realm, & breaker of backs
all the shakespeare parallels in rhaenicent are driving me INSANE welcome back romeo and juliet welcome back lord and lady macbeth welcome back hamlet and ophelia
Male!Baratheon!OC x Male!Targaryen!OC (A/B/O AU)
Prince Aeganyx Targaryen, Son of King Viserys I Targaryen and Queen Aemma Arryn, Younger Brother of Princess Rhaenyra Targaryen and Rider of Sliverwing. (In this AU, Rhaenyra is the heir to the Iron Throne and everything happened like the original timeline and female alphas can get pregnant). Aeganyx was an Omega and pregnant and the only people who knew was Rhaenyra, Daemon, Robert, Laenor, Rhaenys, Corlys, Lucerys, Jacaerys, Rhaena, Baela and Harwin.
Robert Baratheon, Son of Lord Borros Baratheon and the only boy out of four sisters. He was an Alpha and the Secret Lover of Prince Aeganyx and the Father of his children.
(I might write a story about this and if I did they might be few changes to the original timeline and also they might be some gay and lesbian ships in the story 😓)
give me 10 vodka redbulls and an ipod with unlimited music (preferably all of Chappell Roan and Lady Gaga music) and send me to the House of The dragon timeline so they can think i'm their god and i can go and finally tell Alicent to fuck all of it and go marry Rhaenyra before it's too late
i am both of them at the same time, okay?
